I haven't addressed the Haiti crisis here on this blog yet.
I'm not really sure why.
Especially because Haiti was such a focus of our Christmas giving and learning this Christmas season.
Once the earthquake happened we explained it to the girls a little and began praying for the people of Haiti. It was so helpful in praying with them that they were already familiar with the Haitian people and their poverty. It helped them make the connection between reality vs. just some other people on the other side of the world.
Tonight I was catching up on a blog I frequent quite a bit. {Didn't realize how far behind I was!} She mentions several ways you can give to Haiti without spending money.
I wanted to highlight one of the ways because -really- there is NO reason we all can't do this!

We’ve built a great service now we want people to know about it... We thought; let's donate to charity every time someone helps us spread the word. This way, we can then benefit from your word of mouth (or mouse in this case) whilst at the same time being able to donate what we normally would have had to spend on advertising!
Um, how awesome is that?
You can spread the word via Facebook, Twitter or your Blog. Each time...they'll donate to the charity of your choice (that they have listed). In my case, that would be World Vision.
How cool {and simple!} is that?
So...what are you waiting for?
Go help Haiti!
NOW!
